A FEATUREIEss MARKET.
Decidedly Dull and But Few Changes
in PrIoea Recordsd.

New YORK, Mar. i0.-The stock market
was lees active to-day, and presented fewer
features Of interest than yesterday. Out
side Of five stocks--w Western Union, Read
ing, Richmond and West Point, Lacka-
wanna, and New Engiand--the trading was
positively dull and devoid OF feature. The
adjournment Of the Richmond and West
Point executive committee at 9 p. m, with
out taking action on the proposed scheme,
helped to give an impetus to the downward
movement. Western Union was again the
leader Of the speculative, and although II
did not decline as much as yesterday II was
weak throughout after the first hour. Rich
mond and West Point sympathlzed closely
with IL in It's movements, while Reading
was very well held throughout.
The opening was quiet and firm, frat
prices showing advances Of the closing
figures Of last evening Of from 4 TO 2 per
cent. generally. The advance was checked
at the end OF the first hour, and the entire
list weakened under the lead Of Lacka-
wanna. After noon period OF dullness
and stagnation ensued, lasting until nearly
9 p. M, when decided weakness was devel-
oped, and the lowest prices were recorded
about 2:30, after which slight rally oc-
CURED, and the market closed quiet and
steady to firm.
Money on call has been easy, ranging from
81 to ~, last loan at 4, and closing
offered at 30. The market is steady but
with little demand. Sterling exchange is
dull with prices generally in buyers favor.
Actual business at 4S4i TO 4S4i for 60 day
bills and 4S7i to ASIA for demand. Posted
rates 1854 to ASS. Government bonds have
been duh and steady. State bonds have

The Georgia Strawberry Crop.

Savannah (Ga.) News. March 10.
Fifteen acres will probably cover the
entire area ofstrawberry fields around
Savannah. By Saturday the market
will probably be supplied with home
grown berries. The price at the first
will probably be twenty-five cents,
but it usually drops considerably be-
low that. Florida is having great
season for Strawberries. Jackson
vile reports say that the shipments
last week exceeded anything that has
ever been known. Over seventy thou
sand quarts were shipped North last
week from Jacksonville, making
daily average of something over ten
thousand quarts. The fruit has been
bringing from twenty to thirty-five
cents per quart, which is a good aver
age price, and nets the shippers for
the weeks work about SIT, 800. 9th
er points in Florida are shipping large.
". Lawtey has been shipping from
six to eight thousand quarts a~day,
and other places report equally large
shipments. The season, however,
will soon be over, and so far as Sa-
vannah is concerned, the home market
will have It's own supply. Other crops
are looking finely. Beans, cucumbers
and potatoes are up, peas are "hlling"
and the yield promises to be large.

Stories of the Supernatural.


Mrs. Annie Dean Chopper, a we'll
known lady OF Denver, who died sud-
denly in that city recently, had pre-
dicted the exact time OF her death
nearly month before. Early in Feb
ruary she had dream in which
scenes at her death-bed and at the
burial were wildly pictured to her.
Her friends endeavored to laugh away
the unpleasant memory, but their ell
forts were unavailng and she refused
to believe that the dream was not q
presentiment OF her approaching end.
She passed the remaining days OF her
life in religious meditation, and in her
last hours charged her friends to ar
range the funeral ceremonies just as
they had appeared to her in the
dream. Her request was compiled
with and every detail carried out as
she had particularly wished it, even
to the posture OF the head in the colin.
The wife OF o. miner in Western Penn
sylvania dreamed one night recently
that her father appeared before her In
the room and implored forgiveness fog
an act OF unkindness in her childhood.
He then kissed her on the lips and do
parted. She had not seen him for
years, and the dream impressed her
SO strongly that she set out the next
day for his home, in distant part OF
the state. On entering the house she
learned that he was very i'll, and as
she reached his bedside he called out
family: 81 am dying; won't you for
give me?" and expired.
A thin, white ghost ofgigantc height
has been seen by many farmers who
live Just out of Brazil, Ind. 1t is usu-

striding rapidly along the town, but
one farmer met it face to face right be-
fore his own door He threw n stone
at the spectre, but the missile passed
straight through it's chest without APP
parent effect, and the man fled into
the house.
Jacob S. Schnarr, farmer living
near Edna, Mo-, hauled load OF
wood to town one morning recently
ana went into grocery SVore W inaho
some purchases. Suddenly he sat
down and said to the crowd around
the store: "Boys, feel as il l was
going to die before night" He was
laughed at but as he started to drive
home later in the day he slipped from
the wagon beneath the horses hoofs
and his skull was crushed by the
friphtened animals

hear strange, rumbling noise, and at
times feel the earth shake perceptibly.
In the nighttime thick haze settles
over the surface OF the hill, through
which men say they have seen spectres
clad in shining white dance around
the peak uttering unearthly cries and
groant. Years ago a pioneer built q
cabin on the hill and began to till the
land, but the strange sights and
sounds impelled him to abandon it,
and the house has since been unoccu-

1t is in bad taste, as well as contrary to
recognized etiquette, for lady to use on her
visiting card any prefix, whether abbreviated
or otherwise, indicative of her husbands po-
litical honors, religious rank, military or
naval position OF professional occupation.
She does not wish to be received for his sake,
but for ha' own, is the argument of one
